Posey (head) will sit Thursday against the Dodgers, Amy Gutierrez of the Giants' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Posey sits after taking a foul tip off his mask Wednesday, though he hasn't been diagnosed with a concussion. The Giants have managed his workload very carefully throughout the season, and he's started five of the last six games behind the plate, so he likely would have been on the bench Thursday regardless of what happened in Wednesday's game. Curt Casali will get the nod in his absence.
